so is there supposed to be some kind of webcast today?

 

[The Squirrel]

Yes. I think it's at 4:00pm PST.

 

[X Knight]

thanks!

I hope they announce when this will go free to play. I'm eager to try this game out.

but, I am kind of worried how much space it will take up on my PS3's HD to download.....

 

[The Squirrel]

I think the file size is around 14-17 GB now.

 

[GhostPoet]

Too late for it to go free to play for me...with Skyrim coming out, that's obviously taking priority.

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

With Batman on my plate, Uncharted 3 coming in a few days...my hands are pretty full.

It'll probably be downloaded and installed by the time you are done with those

 

[The Squirrel]

They really messed up on when to release it. To many big games coming out. In my opinion, I think they should have released it alongside Batman: AC.

 

[The Squirrel]

November 1st as been announced as the release date. Funny how NOT October that is.

I totally called it too.

 

[BrollySupersj]

Well November 1st isn't that far. Just a few more days.

 

[The Squirrel]

I re-subbed for a month last week because I got tired of waiting. Oh well...

 

[BrollySupersj]

So I know there are a lot of pre-set weapons you can choose from when making your character. But are there any DLC ones? What about DLC parts?

 

[TheDragonator]

Let's see all the awesome gaming stuff that's happening within a week of my birthday:

Arkham City, L.A Noire PC (Complete with all previously released DLC packaged together), and DCUO is F2P?

There is a God.

 

[Hellion]

Funny how NOT October that is.

We all called it...

...I want to try this......but then The Old Republic's out in (late?) December......won't be able to invest in this knowing (hopefully?) something betters coming...

 

[The Squirrel]

So the disc will be completely useless. I just spent 15 hours last week re-installing everything to only have to do it again? I don't think I have the energy for that. Not to mention I really just want to finish unlocking the Trophies that came with the game, but I won't even be able to do that. I want the $60 bucks back that I used to buy this game in the first place.

 

[X Knight]

so November 1st, huh??

but that begs the question.........what's going to happen to all the DCU Online discs that are on the retailer shelves?

in just a few days, those $40-$50 game discs will become worthless......

The game has been (mostly) removed from store shelves since they announced it was going f2p.

The game has been (mostly) removed from store shelves since they announced it was going f2p. And like my posts above the discs will really be worthless.

yeah.......I saw a few copies still on my local Best Buy's shelves the other week.

I think the file size is around 14-17 GB now.

thanks.

thanks.

So the new "official" file size given in the webcast was 20 gigs.

I saw some of the PC versions at a Best Buy near me too, it's not the first time I've seen them still trying to sell something that was going (or already was) free to play.

how long do you think 20 GBs will take to download?? a full day?? lol

 

[The Squirrel]

15 hours is the record to beat for me.

 

[Donut]

Downloading stuff in this game is easy. Its the installing aftewards you have to worry about & I wonder how long it would take to install this full game

 

[misjuevos]

So if I already had the game installed I have to do it again? Or only if I want to have the game without the disc?

 

[Donut]

That is what I want to know as well

 

[The Squirrel]

I've heard both, you won't be able to use the disc, and you just need to install the new update with the disc. I guess we will find out.
